Port Forwarding Question for IP Camera with MI424WR-GEN3

[Howie411]

So just switched to fios from cable and trying to set up port forwarding on this new actiontec router so I can view my IP Camera from outside the house.

The camera has a static IP address of 192.168.1.200  using port 8080 and I works fine if I type that IP address with the port into the browser inside the network.

The IP Camera company requires you to port forward  port 80 (switched to 8080) 554 and 50000-60000.

So I set up Portforwarding on the router like this:

Networked Computer / Device

192.168.1.200:8080

Applications & Ports Forwarded

IPCamera
TCP 8080 -> 8080
UDP 8080 -> 8080
TCP 554 -> 554
UDP 554 -> 554
TCP 50000-60000 -> 50000-60000
UDP 50000-60000 -> 50000-60000

WAN Connection Type

All Broadband Devices

Status

Active

Now the problem is when I type my real IP address:  108.XX.XXX.37:8080 (from inside the network it pulls up the Fios router login page and when I pull it up outside the network I get page not found.  This isnt any different then I had previously done on my Netgear router, but I must be missing something on this actiontec one.  Any suggestions?

Thanks

No port on the ip address

Networked Computer / Device

192.168.1.200

should say tcp any on the left side of the arrow in all cases

TCP any -> 8080
UDP any -> 8080

etc

That is correct, the actiontec's don't like when you define source ports, so in addition to editting your source ports to reflect ANY, you may want to give them a static assignment in the router.

Thanks that worked.  Not a huge fan of this router. 🙂
